It's a charging issue. However... there is a device called the "Scosche PassPORT IFWA" which will charge your iPod touch as it plays, costs $28: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_142IFWA/Scosche-passPORT.html?search=Scosche+PassPORT+IFWA&tp=122&tab=review#tab
Speaking of the iPod touches, when is the 3rd generation expected to come out? My son was wanting one for his birthday which is next January and I wanted to wait until the next generation comes out.
